time for winter

I absolutely love photography, but it takes a really good photograph to stop me in my tracks, and have to back up and take another look. This is one of those such photos.

This photo practically LOOKS like a painting. The colors are vibrant, and even though, it is a busy picture (with quite a lot happening) everything sits perfectly and stands out on it's own.

One of the first things that I noticed was the lone swan. It's not often that one finds a swan in water like that. The second was the water, the strange patterns that are directly behind the swan. The other birds and the water itself really stand out.

It is said that a picture can speak 1,000 words, but I truely think, that this picture speaks quite a few more than 1,000 words. It's a beautiful image. I truly love it. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile) - "/>
